Question 1

What’s the difference between Groups and Forums?

Accepted Answer

Groups are communities built around a specific destination or interest, such as Bangkok, Thailand or Backpacking Asia. They’re designed for ongoing discussions, sharing experiences, tips, and connecting with people who share the same travel interests.Forums are organized into categories like Travel Advice, Visa & Documentation, Accommodation, Finding Travel Buddies, Trip Planning, and Safety & Health. They’re mainly focused on asking questions, getting answers, and helping travelers solve specific problems quickly. Users can also mark the best answer in a thread.

Question 2

Do I really need to enter my birthday?

Accepted Answer

Short answer no.However as we are building an age verification system this could be used later. You still don't have to enter your real birthday but this verification system will verify your age in years. This means that when you don't enter your real birthday this verification could fail.Examples using date today = 2026-05-01 (first of may 2026)Scenario 1: you have set your birthday field to 2000-04-01 >> you are 26 based on this date.Your actual birthday is 2000-06-01 (real age 25) the verification will result in a fail.Scenario 2: you have set your birthday field to 2000-04-01 >> you are 26 based on this date.Your actual birthday is 2000-03-01 (real age 26) the verification will result in a pass.We only check on the age as a number not the specific dates. If you offset the birthday in your profile by a small margin this most likely will not effect the verification process. As long as your real birthday vs the one in your profile result in the same age in years.
